    Description

    We are a family of 3, Andres (40), Patty (38) and Rio (1), + 2 grandparents Manolo (70) and Juani (64) than they life with us long periods. And we can't forget our three dogs, Panda, Gilda y Tobby.

    Andres is from Madrid and I am from Barcelona. We met in Filipinas and our son borned in Ibiza.
    Andres was working as sound tecnique in Madrid and as a dive intructor in Ibiza and about me, last years I was working tacking care children from a perspective of emotional education.

    In April 2023 the life brought us to this place, Alpera. we were looking calm place to life in a countryside and Rio grow up far away from the noisy city. Here we are managing a rural house and we are living in a big and old house in a little village.

    We are a very close family that enjoy spending time together. We are cheerful and very affectionate. We love nature, animals, cooking, music, sing, discovering new places...

    In our free time we like play the guitar, sing, play games, walk around, paint, ride a bike and make some weekend trips... we have some bicicletas to share you if you like it :)

    Stage 7 of the Camino de Santiago passes in front of our house, It is not a very busy path but it is nice to meet some pilgrims every week. We live in Alpera, it is a little village in Albacete, in Castilla la Mancha.
    We have too many places to visit around.

    We love to share our life and time with different and lovely people, because we love to learn from the other.

    Somos una familia de 3, Andres (40), Patty (38) y Rio (1), + 2 abuelos Manolo (70) y Juani (64) que viven con nosotros largas temporadas. Y no podemos olvidar a nuestros tres perros, Panda, Gilda y Tobby.

    Andrés es de Madrid y yo de Barcelona. Nos conocimos en Filipinas y nuestro hijo nació en Ibiza.
    Andrés trabajaba como técnico de sonido en Madrid y como instructor de buceo en Ibiza y en cuanto a mí, los últimos años trabajaba atendiendo a niños desde una perspectiva de educación emocional.

    En abril de 2023 la vida nos trajo a este lugar, Alpera. buscabamos un lugar tranquilo en el campo para vivir y criar a Rio lejos de la ruidosa ciudad. Aquí estamos gestionando una casa rural y vivimos en una casa grande y antigua en un pueblecito.

    Somos una familia muy unida que disfrutamos pasando tiempo juntos. Somos alegres y muy cariñosos. Nos encanta la naturaleza, los animales, cocinar, la música, cantar, descubrir nuevos lugares...

    En nuestro tiempo libre nos gusta tocar la guitarra, cantar, jugar, pasear, pintar, montar en bici y hacer alguna escapada de fin de semana... tenemos unas bicis para compartir contigo si te gusta :)

    La etapa 7 del Camino de Santiago pasa por delante de nuestra casa, no es un camino muy transitado pero es agradable encontrarse con algunos peregrinos cada semana. Vivimos en Alpera, un pequeño pueblo de Albacete, en Castilla la Mancha.
    Tenemos muchos sitios para visitar alrededor.

    Nos encanta compartir nuestra vida y nuestro tiempo con gente diferente y encantadora, porque nos encanta aprender de los demás.
